No Mr. Diamond was the one who re-discovered the tunnel. He poured through drafts, blueprints, etc at Brooklyn Borough Hall and then finally found the manhole, but the tunnel was filled in and he had recruited several volunteers who helped him dig it out. I actually know one of them, he said it was hard work. He has been the sole operator since the LIRR. Also, I cannot imagine the city wanting to take over the tours as to be quite frank the city would not really want to absorb the liability.

Getting in & out of the tunnel is not exactly the easiest and there is potential for danger of slipping, falling, etc. I never been in it but heard from my friend and saw pics and it looks like a libility issue not saying it is as a fact cause I am not a lawyer. I am surprised Mr Diamond had no problems that way.
